The new Fiji Development Bank (FDB) chief executive Officer, Filimone Waqabaca has taken office this week.
In his first address to the FDB team, Waqabaca said he wanted FDB to be the preferred financial institution in Fiji.
‘We want FDB to be the employer of choice when someone has graduated from university and is seeking employment. So, we all have to be good role models and ambassadors of the institution… that is the dream, that is the vision.”
“We can be the key institution in bringing about the development that this country needs. You can support the dreams of those that want to start a business, those that want to have a better life.’
‘We can either support or spark that dream which can cater and contribute positively to our communities. I urge us all, as much as possible, to be facilitative, let us be the catalyst for growth and development in the country.”
Mr Waqabaca was Fiji’s ambassador to Japan before taking up this role.
